Flash Facts:
- #10 Can (aka Gallon Can)
- U.S. Government/Military Surplus
- No Refrigeration Required Until Opened
- 30 Years Shelf Life
- Net Weight 3.5 Lbs per can
- January 2026 Production
Manufactured in 2026 and kept in cold storage by the military, we just purchased a large lot of these directly from the Defense Reutilization Office (DRO) Source. The shelf life is 30 years (probably a LOT longer if you keep the can unopened)
Each can contains 47 ¼-cup servings of great tasting Tomato Powder! For ½ cup of Tomato Sauce, just blend ¼ cup of Tomato Powder with ½ of boiling water. For Tomato Paste, cut back on a small amount of water and blend until you reach the desired thickness. Use in Soups, Stews, as a Pizza Sauce, Spaghetti Sauce, Sloppy Joes, or as Tomato Juice!
Tomato Sauce/Paste has always been a problem for long term storage because the acidity in the tomato will actually eat through the lining of the can over time. But dried in powder form, that is not an issue.
Dehydrated foods, like fresh frozen foods, retain virtually all their fresh-food taste and nutritional content. Dehydrating removes the water, not the natural flavor, vitamins or nutrients. You'll enjoy great tasting foods you whole family will love even if the power goes out.
Dehydrated foods maintain their original size, shape and texture. Dehydrating removes water under low temperatures which keeps intact the moisture channels and food fibers. Just add water, and in minutes every fresh food detail returns. Kids will love the "normal" look and taste.
Dehydrated foods have up to 98% of their water removed. This reduces the food's weight by about 90%. Dehydrated foods are so lightweight and compact you can carry several days worth of food for a large family in a small box. They are ideal for disaster evacuations or for long term emergency food reserves for families, businesses and government agencies.
This dehydrated food is packed in double enameled #10 cans to preserve the food's flavor, texture, color, and nutrients. This Tomato Powder is perfect for storing and using for many years! You can have great tasting food in seconds with no mess and no waste - and it doesn't matter if the power goes out.
- Make fast & easy gourmet tasting meals in minutes!
- No cooking or preparation hassles... Just add water!
- Super lightweight food - easy to carry and transport in case of disaster!
- Perfect for camping, boating, traveling, or at the cabin!

from 206 reviewsLost mine on the return trip from JRTC. This one was good enough to clear me with supply and saved me 150 dollars.
The bivvy bag had very minimal damage and was very easy to repair. I was expecting(and prepared for) worse. I also ordered a ruck sack that was just as described. I’m very happy with the order and I will give Forrest city my business any time.
Look great and in good condition for the great price. Thanks again been trying to find a good one to complete my old turtle that was on my cvc will i was a tanker.

Everything about it but it seems to be great all the way from the packaging to its features. Can't wait to put it to the test. Will update soon.
Right product right time.

Item arrived in great condition and clean. Forest City shipped the item quickly out of the store. Thank you!
I’m use to the old Alice gear, so this is new too me. Everything was in great shape, and I can see why they use this now. Definitely holds your gear closer to your body, making it easier to move.
